Essex County Council – Essex Local Offer

Essex County Council’s NEW Local Offer website has information for our families caring for someone under 25 years.

‘The Local Offer gives information about support available in Essex for children and young people aged between 0 to 25, with Special Needs and Disabilities (SEND).

You can use the Local Offer to:

• understand what to do if you’re new to SEND
• browse for local support such as support groups, fun activities or specialist healthcare
• find out what to do in a complex situation, for example if you need to appeal a decision
• get advice for young adults with SEND, such as housing and employment support
